A non-refunable retainer of $1000 is due at the signing of this agreement with the balance to be paid off in installments or a lump sum 4 weeks before the date of the wedding. This retainer is non-refundable or transferable if the event is cancelled by the Client. Cancellation by the client less than 4 weeks before the date of the event will require payment in full.

Where Paul Bamford is staying to photograph during dinner, a meal, served at the same as guests must be provided (this is to insure that the meal is not served later during important parts of the events). If no meal is provided Paul Bamford may leave the venue to purchase one.

Turn around time is up to 6 weeks from event date.

The entire copyright of the photographs is retained by the photographer. Where digtal files have been provided to the client, these photographs may be printed and displayed online, for personal but not commercial use. The photographer retains the right in all cases to use the photographs for the purposes of advertising or otherwise promoting his work.

If Paul Bamford cannot perform this agreement in whole or in part due to a fire or other casualty, acts of God or nature or terror, or other cause beyond the control of Paul Bamford or due to photographer’s illness or injury, then all fees will be returned to the Client(s) but Paul Bamford shall have no further liability with respect to this agreement. All efforts will be taken to secure another photographer. This limitation on liability shall also apply in the event that photographic materials are damaged in processing, lost through camera malfunction, or otherwise lost or damaged. Client(s) agree that an entire event cannot be replicated, reenacted or repeated for the purpose of a re-shoot and limits Paul Bamford’s liability to the amount paid under this agreement.
